The moment Tian Yuqiao arrived at his house, he saw that the courtyard of the old mansion was bustling with noise and excitement, and there were many dark shadows moving about.

After separating the crowd on both sides, Tian Yuqiao squeezed through with great difficulty.

Sis, we're going to chase all three of us out, wuu …

"What, your father left you three girls at home and didn't care about it. Does he still want us two old men to help him feed his wife and children?" Madame Li said angrily.

"Exactly, there is no one in the second house who can do heavy work, and they are all being supported by us. Isn't this a bit too unfair?" "I say, Village Head, since we have already decided on this, you should just agree to it. After all, isn't this just a piece of paper belonging to a branch family?"

Wang Heng glared at Lady Gao and ignored her, turning his head to look at the dumbstruck Lady Wang.

"Village Chief, my mother was so agitated by them that she didn't speak anymore. She spent quite a lot of money to pay for the soup these days. They want us to split up. Alright, let my mother settle the bill first."

Tian Yuqiao raised her face and looked straight into the Village Head's eyes.

"That's right, little girl Qiao'er is right. It's fine if you want to split your family's money, but you have to pay all the soup fees that they were paying before splitting it."

"That's right, this Tian family is too outrageous. If we kick them out like this, aren't we afraid Tian Lao and Meng would become ghosts and come to settle the score with her in the middle of the night?"

When Madame Li heard this, the flesh on her face jumped a few times. She was still full of reverence towards ghosts and gods, and she was really worried that Er'er would come find her.

"Little Four is about to take the Elementary Scholar examination. The three of them are making a ruckus in the yard all day, affecting the career of our number four. Who among you can afford to hold on?"

"No one said anything about disagreeing with your branch family. However, Qiao'er is right. Previously, Mother Qiao borrowed some silver from me. Altogether it is one to two silver taels. Return the silver taels first." Doctor Lin had a serious expression on his face.

When Madame Li heard that, she actually spent so much money. Immediately, her hair stood on end.

"This is all borrowed from that damned bastard Yutang in private. I didn't go to borrow it; I have to repay the money and ask him for it."

"Oh? Is there anyone that unreasonable? "That money should be yours to begin with. After all, you didn't split up your family and your daughter-in-law was sick. As your mother-in-law, you should take the money and give people medicine." Tian Ju Hua said angrily.

"Pfft, they secretly borrowed money from me to repay the debt. Then, why don't you ask them how many sons of mine Lady Wang gave me behind their backs?"

Hearing her words, the surrounding people began to waver.

"I didn't expect that such an honest person like Lady Wang would actually accumulate private property."

"Of course, since everyone is living together, the money she earns should be given to Grandma."

Seeing that things were not going well, Tian Yuqiao quickly interrupted, "Milk, you said that my mother is saving money in her private room. Do you have any proof? If you can't provide any proof, then you are slandering my mother and tarnishing her reputation. "

"You damn girl, when adults talk, how can you interrupt? Get out of my way. " The Gao Clan immediately assumed the posture of an elder.

"That's right, I even saw your mother get a handkerchief last time. Those are all things that can be exchanged for money."

The second son of the Gao Clan, Tian Yuchang, hid behind his mother and dragged Tian Guihua into the fray.

"Yo, this osmanthus flower really owes me a lot."

"That's right. Her ten fingers are not stained with the Yang Spring Water, so she doesn't even care if someone else is embroidering something or not."

"She's already so young, yet she's already stirring up a family. If anyone marries her in the future …"

Seeing that the spearhead was suddenly pointed at her, Tian Guihua was so angry that she almost died. She slammed the door and returned to her room.

"Search, that silver must be in the house of the second brother."

Tian Yuqiao's eyes flickered. She thought to herself that luckily she went to the town today and took away all of the embroidery work that Lady Wang had privately received. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain.

Presumably, in these years, they also relied on Lady Wang to occasionally secretly embroider some things to earn money, which was why they didn't starve to death.

Madame Li called out to Madame Gao and the Jiang Clan, and even Tian Dajiang was called in.

The thatched cottage could only fit so many people into it. After all, this was the place where one would turn and hit one's buttocks.

He rummaged through the entire house, and even Wang Shi's marriage box was opened, but there wasn't even a single copper coin.

"Where did that damn girl go just now?"

"Mother, she seems to have returned with the pillar. There's no doubt that she has money hidden on her body."

"Search."

"I forbid you to touch my sister." Tian Yutang came over crying to protect Tian Yuqiao.

Tian Yuqiao winked at him. She wasn't worried at all. She had already secretly thrown in the Emptiness Realm when she saw the large number of people at the side of the town and the remaining copper coins.

Lady Gao roughly searched her body, but didn't find anything. She suddenly became angry. "Mother, I'm guessing that this girl hid the silver and possibly hid it in the den of wolves."

"Enough, Gao Clan. You are also a wife to others. Don't go overboard when doing things." The Village Chief could no longer bear to watch and finally spoke.

Turning his head, he said to Madame Li, "Now that the house has been searched and the people have been searched by you, what else do you have to say?"

Madame Li shrunk back from the village chief's cold gaze. She immediately turned to Tian Chanzi and said, "Old man, you're the head of the family. What do you think we should do about this?"

Tian Chanzi was already used to it. Every time his wife made things difficult for him, he'd drag her out to wipe her butt.

"Village Chief, as I see it, we should split up this residence." We'll pay for Qiao'er's mother's medical fees. However, it's unknown whether Ol 'Two is still alive or not. If we give our family's land to Lady Wang, I'm afraid that she will take our Old Tian's property and marry to someone else. I still have to keep it for my son. "

"Then how are you going to divide it?"

Old Man Tian thought for a moment and said, "How about this? The room they live in continues to be for them to live in. There are a total of six laying hens in this house, so we give two to them." I won't give them the fields. Let's see what the second brother will say when he comes back. As for the money, our situation isn't too good either. We can barely help them pay a couple of dollars, so we won't split the money with them. "

When Madame Li heard this, she actually wanted to share two hens with them, and was immediately fuming. However, when she received the Old Man's warning gaze, she did not dare to say much.

"Master, if the land is not given to us, what about the food? It can't be that you don't want to share it with us, right? " Tian Yuqiao blinked innocently with her large eyes.

"This... He had just farmed in the autumn, so his harvest this year was mediocre. Your family has a small population and no strong men. The work in the fields is of no help to you. "Just divide it according to the number of people. Your mother will divide it into ten catties of sorghum rice and twenty catties of corn flour. The two of you will divide it into ten catties of black flour and ten catties of corn flour."
